It has long been our desire to create a bearing witness retreat around America’s racial history – as seen through the eyes of African Americans.  We began in 2021 but were limited to offering an online retreat, but we are now able to do something in person.

This year we plan on walking the ground in three cities with a deep history in the expansion of slavery, Jim Crow, and the Civil Rights movement – Birmingham, Selma, and Montgomery.

In preparation for this in-person retreat, ZPI Executive Director Geoff O’Keeffe will hold a Question-and-Answer session for the current registrants and for those who are still considering joining the retreat. The session will cover the intention of the event, itinerary, program, logistics, planning, and registration. Please join us for an opportunity to ask questions and learn more.
